Hello and welcome to the Clearspring October Newsletter. At Clearspring we take great pride in bringing you delicious and healthy cooking ingredients and Clearspring Organic Brown Sushi Rice, which is being launched this month, is first class. As more and more people are becoming concerned with their diet, their lifestyles and the environment, it gives me great pleasure to be able to promote healthy living by offering nutritious, ethically sourced, organic foods. In order to do this one of the things we do is to exhibit at consumer shows such as Rude Health in Dublin. See below for details of this and other recent events. We also have some great autumnal recipes for you and the start of our new series exploring in-depth the oils in the Clearspring range. Enjoy!

Best wishes,

CS Organic Brown Sushi Rice

By popular demand, we are delighted to announce that we have now added Organic Brown Rice to our sushi range. This tasty and nutritious rice is grown in Italy from the selenio grain, just like Clearspring Organic Sushi Rice. It is a delicious wholegrain food which can also be used to make tasty sushi packed full of vitamins and minerals. Find cooking instructions and nutritional information here.
